About the store
I've loved treasure hunts and solving clues ever since I was a kid. As an elementary teacher for over 15 years, I created Blimey Box as a way to inspire and challenge my 5-year-old son. In order to help him develop critical thinking skills, I created a mystery-solving game that incorporated early math and reading skills at his level. It started as a fun way to support him academically at home, but it turned into a way to inspire curious kids to excel! Curiosity fuels learning. My kid was so motivated by our games, I decided to start making a digital version to use in my classroom. If my games could inspire my child that much, they could definitely motivate a classroom of students. Educational escape games get kids to think outside the box with engaging math and reading puzzles.

Teaching style

I believe that through curiosity, kids can learn anything. I strive to help students become creative problem solvers and take an active role in their learning. I think kids learn best when activities are fun, engaging, and purposeful.

My own education history

BA Business Economics - University California at Santa Barbara Teaching Credential - National University MS Instructional Media - Wilkes Barre & Discovery Education

Additional biographical information

I also LOVE math! I've been trained in Cognitive Guided Instruction (CGI) math and I love sharing about it. I am passionate about giving students opportunities to figure out math problems using tools and in ways that are meaningful to them.
